  1. Hmmm--I wonder if that would cause HUGE tornadoes!!!  They are a combination of hot and cold...(The cold water would rise into the air)...


  2. Not practical, but very intersting proposal.

    I heard over 30 years ago they were making studies to control dust storms in eastern Africa, to control  particles of dust that create condensation in east atlantic atmosphere, to control hurricans that make damages in atlantic coast and gulf of Mexico, in  USA.

    Now they admit that is true.

  3. How are we supposed to carry water from the arctic to the Gulf of Mexico?

  4. no

  5. Theoretically, possibly. But, how do you get it there? What is going to be the ecological impact of moving that much water from one place to another, and the ecological impact of the contents of the arctic water being dumped into a completely new environment? How do you offset the water level being added, where is the rest of that water going to go? How will the mixing of these two waters, with their different biological and mineral content, affect other weather and their patterns in the area?

  6. Cold air aloft is conducive to severe weather......

  7. what about all of the sea life in there?

    they would all go into shock because of the climate change.

    what if the water gets hotter as we transport it?

    the sun location would warm the water back up anyway.
